My Best Teacher Podcast: Clare Balding

In this episode of the My Best Teacher podcast, we chat to author, broadcaster and journalist Clare Balding about:

  • A “razor-sharp and demanding” English teacher who got the best out of her.
  • Why she was suspended from school - and bounced back to become head girl.
  • A new book she’s written for children on overcoming difficult times.
  • Why dogs need to evolve to enjoy video calls.
  • A very painful trip to A&E.
